Re-Entry!
As usual, re-entry to home life after Houston is a whirlwind, as you might gather by the absence of posts here! Joshua’s birthday is always just a few days after my return, so usually the suitcases aren’t emptied and put away before I’m shopping for birthday dinner and so on. Life was complicated by the snowstorm which cancelled my flight from Boston, causing me to drive home in the snow in the dark in a rental car. At least they cancelled flights early, so I got home not much later than I would have had I waited in Boston for my connecting flight. In the next few posts I’ll share International Quilt Market and Festival, but first, a little bit of home. Since US Thanksgiving is in two days, and since there is nothing I am more thankful for than my family and home, let’s start here.
Guess we should have taken the settee and rockers in a bit earlier. They are now stashed in the garage!
Then, pumpkin pie. The shopping list for Joshua’s birthday always begins with fixings for his birthday pie, which is what he has wanted since he was about 10. We’ve kept the “year” / age candles as the boys grew, and keep re-using them. Joshua is now starting his third decade—how can he be 21????????
Then I was sneak-attack with the camera. None of them were thrilled, but what the heck. I’m Mama, and I want pictures!
And the next day, three fourths of the feline contingent:
I’ll have a new post tomorrow starting with International Quilt Market.

Enjoyed the pics, but the snow would be scary to try to drive in! Beautiful kitties; I’ll be watching for the fourth.
